Suppressor protein STP22 of temperature-sensitive alpha-factor receptor and arginine permease; Component of the ESCRT-I complex; ESCRT-I is involved in ubiquitin-dependent sorting of proteins into the endosome; prevents polyubiquitination of the arrestin-related protein Rim8p, thereby directing its monoubiquitination by Rsp5p; homologous to the mouse and human Tsg101 tumor susceptibility gene; mutants exhibit a Class E Vps phenotype;; Belongs to the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family. UEV subfamily.
